Pack Your Bags for Sailing Charter boat vacation on Luxury Catamarans
WELCOME ABOARD !
Choosing to charter is a tedious Task, With VOYAGE charters you will feel at home - If you have not charter a yacht before, the following suggestions may help you plan for your trip:
1. View our Luxury Catamaran / BareBoat Briefing on line at www.voyagecharters.org
2. Remember to pack your passport; everyone must have their own passport.
3. Travel light - you will not need much ! Like the lifestyle, clothing in the tropics is casual. Bring as many changes of swimwear as you can muster and a few pairs of shorts and T-shirts. It is a good idea to pack one lightweight sweater and a pair of long pants as it can be cool on the water at night.
4. This will be an essentially barefoot vacation, but for trips ashore and for the rare occasion when you might want to wear shoes on deck, a good pair of deck shoes or similar attire is handy. Beach shoes, such as ‘Teva’s’, are a must for this vacation as you will need footwear that can handle getting wet and filled with sand.
5. Use duffel bags and similar soft-luggage as these can be far more easily stored onboard than hard-sided suitcases. There is no storage on board for large suitcases.
6. Carry your toothbrush, swimming costume and any vital medications in your hand luggage; if by some unlucky chance your luggage goes missing you will be able to get on with your vacation whilst the airline traces it ! If your journey involves a complicated flight plan, label your luggage on board with VOYAGE charters base address and contact phone number.
